Review of The Unbearable Lightness of Being (1988) by Andrew B — 16 Sep 2009
A good film that could have been great. There are scenes that are magnificent and the performances don't leave much to be desired, but the flow of the film and emotional impact seem a tad inconsistent.
The art house edge feels a bit forced and unnatural despite Kaufman's attempts to make it genuine. Not a bad film by any means, but I can definitely see where it lacks the spirit of the source material.
